This also got me wondering, if such a thing could possibly become reality. I know this might sound like science fiction, but think about it, what if we could tell our brain what to do & could REALLY* unlock our brains full potential. This could be the birth of a completely new age & a whole bunch of things/ideas that sounded like science fiction would become reality. This is just a guess & im wondering if scientist could some how figure out a way to do such a thing. As again this got me thinking very strongly about gaining control of our brain. I hope to see something like this im the near future.
Looking forward to seeing your responses & ideas
Supposedly, with the unlocking of your brain, you could levitate (Buddhist monks), predict the future/witness the past, have Out-of-Body Experiences, have great intelligence, among other things. By great intelligence, think of Einstein, or Thomas Edison -- consider that it took thousands of years to come up with nuclear energy and electricity, and then wonder why all of a sudden they would figure it out. Of course, you'd have to have an open mind. It's like saying you can see ghosts. Some people will share that belief, while others will think you're an imbecile. Remember, anything can be proven, as well as disproven. I like to keep an open mindset. I read about a pair of twins who could feel each others emotions, no matter how distant apart they are. When one of them died, the other felt like part of his soul was destroyed. One could tell when the other was sick, so it was quite fascinating to read. The people who say that the brain's full potential will never be realized are the same people who say communication would never be globalized (internet), or that humans will not fly (airplanes), or that nations will never form alliances (United Nations, among others).
